Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming-Chapter 155 - 153: Underground Space

Li Miao Zhen glanced at Qin Feng, noticing that he had captured the Fire Ape without much concern.

Although the Fire Ape’s strength was decent, all of her own Spiritual Beasts had been carefully selected for their stronger war power and their varied uses. She had no need to subdue another Fire Element Spiritual Beast, as doing so would occupy too much of her Divine Sense, which could interfere with her cultivation.

Besides, the Fire Ape had first suffered destruction of its Demon Core and then was bombarded by thunder, which had damaged its foundation. Even if provided with elixir pills to strengthen and nourish its essence, it would take a considerable amount of time to recover.

She had long been able to advance to the Golden Core Realm and planned to retreat for cultivation to condense her Golden Core after completing this mission and returning to the Mountain Gate.

Once her cultivation reached the Golden Core Realm, the severely injured Fire Ape would no longer be of significant help to her. It would simply distract a portion of her Divine Sense, becoming a burden, so she had no intention of taming it.

But for Qin Feng it was different; he had not yet reached Foundation Establishment. Having such a Fire Ape could be a great help to him in the future. The only issue was whether Qin Feng could heal the wounds of the Fire Ape.

"Do you want to subdue that Fire Ape, or do you plan to kill it for its materials and Essence Blood?

If you’re planning to subdue it, you should quickly implant a Binding Spell in its Sea of Consciousness while it is severely injured and its consciousness is unclear. Having cultivated for many years and formed a Demon Core, that Fire Ape’s Divine Soul is much stronger than ordinary Foundation Establishment Demon Beasts. Once it regains consciousness, with your current level of Divine Sense, it would be impossible to succeed.

Even so, be cautious. Your cultivation is still too weak. You should advance to Foundation Establishment quickly; otherwise, be careful of being backfired upon by the Fire Ape."

Li Miao Zhen earnestly advised Qin Feng.

"Thank you for the guidance, Senior Sister. I understand," Qin Feng nodded and replied.

He possessed the Demon Refining Pot. Once captured inside, any Demon Beast that had not comprehended the Dao Principles would have no chance of resistance under its suppression, and would be directly subdued by the pot.

Only those Demon Beasts that had begun to comprehend the Dao Principles from the Purple Mansion Realm upward would have some power to resist.

With Qin Feng’s current level of cultivation, he could not provide any assistance to the Demon Refining Pot; he could merely rely on the innate abilities of the pot to subdue Demon Beasts. Should he encounter any formidable Great Demons who had comprehended the principles and struggled fiercely, there was indeed a chance they could break free.

Only after Qin Feng advanced to the Golden Core would he be able to further refine the Demon Refining Pot, deepen his connection with it, and manipulate it to exert greater power.

And once he comprehended the Dao Principles himself, he would be able to unleash most of the pot’s power. At that time, any Demon Beast that hadn’t become an Immortal and was trapped inside the pot would have no possibility of escaping.

They proceeded, and the ground gradually sloped downward, leading them to an unknown depth underground.

It was uncertain how the passage had formed, but faint light filtered through, preventing total darkness.

They moved swiftly, yet it still took a good fifteen minutes before the sounds of activity and Chen Buqi’s voice urging his fellow Sect members could be heard ahead.

"Quick, quick, quick," Chen Buqi’s tone carried a hint of urgency. "Everyone, pick up the pace. The entrance above can only be maintained for an hour. If we don’t finish setting up the Array in time, we’ll be trapped here.

We’ll have to wait until the Secret Realm closes and the Supreme Elder from our Sect comes to refine the Grotto Heaven before we can leave and return to the Mountain Gate. If the refining goes poorly, we could be stuck here for years, even decades. I certainly don’t want to spend decades in this godforsaken place."

"Rest assured, Senior Brother Chen, we’ve already set up nearly half. In at most another half an hour, we’ll complete the Array," a Disciple replied while working diligently.

"Good," Chen Buqi acknowledged.

Another disciple flattered, "After this mission, Senior Brother Chen will surely have made a great achievement. The position of True Disciple is yours to claim!"

"Isn’t that obvious?" another Disciple chimed in. "What’s Zhuo Feifan but a joke? Relying on a bit of talent, he actually thinks he can compete with Senior Brother Chen for the position of True Disciple—it’s ludicrous.

Who supports him from behind?

Even with backers, they couldn’t offer him any significant opportunities. Just like our mission to this Heavenly Pool Secret Realm, the fact he could participate is already his limit, but the idea he could earn considerable merit is pure fantasy."

"Indeed," someone mocked. "The most laughable are those clueless disciples who have gathered around him, hoping to rise with the tide when he becomes a True Disciple.

Ha, a bunch of fools who can’t see the forest for the trees, daring to blindly follow him into the Ancient Battlefield. So many died last time; those few who still follow him must have woken up by now."

Chen Buqi spoke in a flat tone, "Never mind him, just a clueless fool with no self-awareness.

If he had stayed obediently as my stepping stone, I wouldn’t even have bothered with him. Instead, that guy dares to delusionally vie for the True Inheritance position with me; he’s digging his own grave.

If he continues to be so reckless, by the time of the great competition, I won’t hesitate to cripple him thoroughly."

In the tunnel, Zhuo Feifan’s eyelids twitched furiously, his heart filled with raging fury. These disciples who followed Chen Buqi dared to slander him so behind his back—they truly deserved death.

And as for Chen Buqi, he also held such disdain for him, even contemplating crippling him.

Hmph, since you harbor such thoughts, don’t blame me for being heartless!

Zhuo Feifan, who had initially felt a trace of shame in his heart for exploiting Qin Feng and Li Miao Zhen to kill Chen Buqi, cast aside all feelings of guilt upon hearing Chen Buqi’s words.

Since it was Chen Buqi who acted unkindly first, then he couldn’t blame Zhuo Feifan for being ruthless. If Chen Buqi thought he could use Zhuo Feifan as a stepping stone for his own cultivation path, taking advantage of Zhuo’s reputation as a genius to build his own fame, then he had to accept Zhuo Feifan’s decision to eliminate him in advance.

In the end, it wasn’t Zhuo himself who personally took action to kill him; it was the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect. Even if the sect invited someone to perform divination, it would only trace back to Li Miao Zhen, and Zhuo Feifan would be uninvolved.

Qin Feng glanced at Zhuo Feifan, who was seething with anger, and chuckled silently to himself. It seemed this fellow had truly abandoned all his moral principles. From now on, any powerful rival who blocked his rise to power would probably be targeted for elimination.

Of course, from now on, it might not be him or Li Miao Zhen taking action. After returning, he would certainly report this matter to the sect. Then, naturally, the sect’s higher-ups would handle it, seamlessly and without any trace leading back to Zhuo Feifan.

Qin Feng wasn’t afraid of Zhuo Feifan’s ambition; the greater his ambition, the more issues he would later bring to the Beast Taming Sect.

Undeniably, Zhuo Feifan was a cultivation genius, and it only made sense that a genius’s rival would also be a genius; otherwise, it would just show that Zhuo was incompetent.

Every opponent of Zhuo Feifan that they killed was like eliminating a genius with boundless potential from Taiyi Mountain, reducing Taiyi Mountain’s future development potential.

"Brother Zhuo, you heard it too. Chen Buqi absolutely didn’t regard you as a fellow disciple. He even planned to cripple you during the sect’s grand competition. Such an enemy must not be spared, or else your future on Taiyi Mountain will be in danger.

Since he does not have the slightest fellow disciple sentiment towards you, you need not feel any guilt towards him. Brother Zhuo, rest assured, we will help you kill him to prevent any future troubles from him stirring up whilst alive."

Qin Feng transmitted his voice.

Until this moment, he did not forget to instill these notions in Zhuo Feifan’s mind.

Zhuo Feifan nodded and transmitted back, "If so, then I’ll have to trouble the two of you. I will remember this favor and surely repay it in the future."

"Good, Brother Zhuo truly is a person of great ambition. I knew that collaborating with Brother Zhuo would definitely not leave us at a loss."

Qin Feng’s face was filled with a smile as he flattered Zhuo Feifan, and then he turned to Li Miao Zhen, saying, "Sister, my cultivation is inadequate. I will need you to unleash your divine power and eliminate those few individuals, clearing the obstacles for Brother Zhuo."

Li Miao Zhen gave Qin Feng a look, speechless.

Even now, this guy still framed the killing of Chen Buqi and the others as for the sake of Zhuo Feifan.

"Right, Brother Zhuo."

Qin Feng suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, "Chen Buqi comes from an extraordinary background and is likely to have some life-saving items on him. Do you know anything about this?"

"I know some."

Zhuo Feifan thought for a moment and decided to lay all his cards on the table lest Chen Buqi managed to escape, which would not be to his benefit.

"He’s different from me; I only have one Sword Talisman given by my master, while he has at least three on him. Besides the Sword Talisman for attacking, he must also possess one or two treasures for protection and escape. Later on, Daoist Fellow Li should be careful, and not be caught off guard and injured by him."

Li Miao Zhen thought for a moment, then suddenly took out a Spirit Talisman. With a flick of her finger, she activated it, and it instantly formed a barrier sealing off the entire passage entrance.

She was taking precautions against Chen Buqi’s escape, preemptively sealing the passage to trap him.

As for the life-saving items Chen Buqi had on him, she did not pay too much attention.

Because before she came in, the Beast Taming Sect had prepared even more for her.

"Who’s there?"

The activity from the Spirit Talisman was not very loud, but in the silent depths of the Earth Core, it was still easily noticeable, especially since it was so close to the Underground Space below.

However, Li Miao Zhen had no intention of hiding her movements. With her strength, there was no need.

And so, she took a step forward and walked out.

"Li Miao Zhen?"

The few people who were arranging an Array changed their expressions dramatically, not expecting her to appear in the Underground Space.

"Zhuo Feifan and his bunch are just useless."

Chen Buqi cursed furiously, "Didn’t they already subdue her earlier? How did they let her come down here?"

Li Miao Zhen laughed lightly. Then, with a step that brought a gust of wind, she quickly approached the group, reaching out with a claw-like hand towards the head of one of them.

"Attack together and stop her."

Chen Buqi shouted fiercely, taking the lead in summoning his Flying Sword and stabbing towards Li Miao Zhen. As he did so, his hand flipped, and he already took out a Jade Talisman.

The Jade Talisman was crystal clear, with a Sword Qi sealed at the center.

As Li Miao Zhen defended against their Flying Swords, he suddenly activated the Jade Talisman, transforming it into a stunning Sword Qi that slashed toward Li Miao Zhen.
